I have been visiting the Horseshoe Curve since the mid-1970s. I was quite disappointed during my last visit after a couple years. The park and visitors' now center now closes at 6 p.m. and now even the parking lots are locked up at that time. During a visit a few years ago, we could still park and take the stairs up later in the evening.
Years ago there were many, many more people at the curve at all hours. Now it seems like a ghost town. Was there an after-hours incident at the park that necessitated closing in at such an early hour? I realize the tram is a great benefit for many, but is some ways it seems like the whole experience was more enjoyable when the park was less informal. Just sayin....
